The Mon Son commune youth volunteer team serving tourists on the occasion of April 30 and May 1 holidays consists of 15 people mobilized from most of the youth unions in the area, most of whom are village youth union secretaries.

This team is divided into groups in charge of different tasks such as parking, guiding guests, and staying at the beach to disseminate safety measures to guests.

Mr. Nguyen Van Thao, Secretary of the Youth Union of Mon Son commune, said: In addition, we also inform people about the prices of services such as car parking, yachts, tour guides, etc.

All services are priced by the district government and are no longer left to businesses as before.

According to Mr. Thao, supporting the tour groups is completely voluntary. “None of us are paid. But the commune supports one lunch every day,” said a team member.

It is the enthusiasm of the volunteers that has created sympathy from tourists coming to tourist attractions in Con Cuong.

Ms. Nguyen Thi Lien from the coastal commune of Dien Hung, Dien Chau shared: “I have been to tourist attractions in Con Cuong several times. This year, I see a lot of changes. The tourist attractions are organized more professionally. Especially, the TNTN members are very enthusiastic and polite.”
